Israel does not wish the Qur'an to exist in this country. Israel does not wish the 'ulama to exist in this country. It was Israel that assaulted the Fayziyeh Madrasa by means of its sinister agents. It is still assaulting us, and assaulting you, the nation; it wishes to seize your economy, to destroy your trade and agriculture, to appropriate your wealth. Israel wishes to remove by means of its agents anything it regards as blocking its path...In order for Israel to attain its objectives, the government of Iran has continually affronte us in accordance with goals and plans conceived in Israel.
